Auto tune isn’t primarily used to change a singers voice entirely. Mainly it’s used in pitch correction. In live performances, most artists can’t stay in key ALL the time, so recordings have pitch correction (auto tune)

It was being played everywhere and you heard it at least 10 times a day on the radio. Restaurants still had juke boxes and someone was always plugging a nickle in and playing this. It was a pretty big hit. Eric Burdon (the singer) whet on from there and is still kicking around.

An interesting fact about this song is that it's author is unknown. The earliest recording of it dates back to 1933, the earliest known publication of the song is 1925 and it was known to coal miners in 1905. It is possible that the origin of the song dates back to the civil war era or even earlier, there is some anecdotal evidence linking it to 16th and 17th century ballads.

Many have called this the greatest recording in rock & roll history, and it wa a huge hit in the 1960s. However, keep in mind that, in the video, they were just pretending to play. There was no wireless technology in those days, so for the guitar and bass to make sound, they had to be plugged into amplifiers, which would make it impossible for the players to walk around the studio. Eric Burden (the singer) was lip-synching, so that might be why he wasn't showing any strain to his voice. The song itself is a folksong, first collected by Alan Lomax in Kentucky in the 1930s, sung by a 14-year-old girl in Kentucky. A fair number of folk musicians had recorded it, and Dave van Ronk had worked out the chord progression used by the Animals (but never shared in any royalties). Note, however, that in this version, Eric Burden changed one word from the original lyrics: It's been the ruin of many a poor *girl*. You see, the House of the Rising Sun was a house of prostitution. But, of course, Eric Burden couldn't sing "girl" on a song played on popular radio in the 1960s.

That thing he did with voice that got you shook is called a cry. He went a bit deep in his tenor range to get that treble, but he doesn’t have to strain. He sounds like he can cross over into the baritone range easily which gives him at least a two octave range, although it’s probably bigger than that. Avi Kaplan, in our time can range from a very deep bass to a high baritone. If you’ve never listened to Pentatonix, check out their cover of “Hallelujah”. Between Avi’s bass - baritone range and Mitch Grassi’s tenor - countertenor range you will be astounded. And in this song, the cry Avi puts in his singing with break your heart.

Our parents didn't like us listening to Eric Burden and The Animals. It wasn't just about the lyrics talking about a prison (which they misinterpreted as a ho house because there was one of the same name) but the grit and power of Eric's voice they thought was dangerous. They never said it was too sexy or what, but back then parents didn't have to give reasons. They just stated their views and that was it. Tobacco Road was one of my favorites. I mean, we did ride around in cars listening to AM radio and hearing what Mom and Dad didn't approve. 😂

Burdon was lead vocalist of the Animals, formed during 1962 in Newcastle upon Tyne. The original band was the Alan Price Rhythm and Blues Combo, which formed in 1958;[16] they became the Animals shortly after Burdon joined the band. The Animals combined electric blues with rock; in the US they were considered one of the leading bands of the British Invasion.[17] Along with the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, the Hollies, the Dave Clark Five, and the Kinks, the group introduced contemporary British music and fashion to American audiences.

The Animals was my first concert experience. After that growing up in the 60 & 70s, going to concerts regularly was awesome. I grew up in Chicago listening and seeing some of the best music.

You younger generation need to listen to the artists from the 60s before all the high tech used today, they only had their voices to project those beautiful notes and vocals that shows the natural talent that most of the artists today seldom have

I deeply appreciate your appreciation of this music post. Eric Burdon and the Animals simply burned so cool with this amazing song. Thank you.

He originally sang this in the bars in New Orleans. He's also got a Cajun accent he covers most of the time. I caught a few pronounciations that are pure Cajun. I love this song.

Everybody talks about Burdon's vocals, and rightfully so. But, man, that keyboard solo..........

“And the Only time” you can hear the grit. They were ahead of their time and very underrated. I appreciate your ear on this!

Hi Greg - I loved your reaction to this iconic track. When Hilton Valentine (may his soul rest in peace) smiles at the end, I reckon it's cos he knows they nailed it. This track's in my all-time top 20 greats.

The days when the British Invasion guys wore matching suits and ties. Beatles, Animals, and yes, Stones. Interesting staging how they are slowly walking along, playing, like a funeral procession in New Orleans.

Eric Burdon learnt to sing in the clubs of Newcastle and the North East Of England he went on stage singing from a Young Age with many different acts and made a name at a very young age , with his vocal range and the ease he could hit the notes high or a low a True talent from Newcastle..
